It looks like we are going to have a policy free election campaign from the Labour party, and that just isn’t good enough.

It’s lazy and it’s arrogant.

Perhaps they’ve decided that policy runs the risk of actually having to do something.

The Prime Minister has said that they are going to fight the election on the basis that they did a good job during the Chinese Plague.

She also made a bizarre reference to a Netflix show in launching her campaign.

But did they?

That’s why they are scare-mongering on community transmission and masks.

Their poor performance on past promises is also why they don’t want to campaign on their achievements.

There are precious few of those.

Sadly, the media are letting Jacinda Ardern get away with it all.

And with her army of Covid Karens telling off anyone who dares criticise we are fast losing any semblance of robust political debate.

That’s why we ask the hard questions and draw your attention to the mawing gap between Labour’s slogans and promises and their actual delivery.
